Toolset

#1USE MICROSOFT TEAMS AS A collaboration hUB

MS Teams allows project members to put all tools and files into one central hub. Non-Microsoft applications can be integrated via a plug-in or website URL . Clients across all three universities are able to collaborate as well through the hub. Visit the SDLC Teams hub for suggested project structure and content.

#2MICROSOFT OFFICE 365 APPS ARE RECOMMENDED FOR CONTENT CREATION

  • We recommend using Microsoft Office 365 and SharePoint to create requirements and other content
  • For prototypes: Use the appropriate BI tool (reporting, data visualization, data analytics, etc.)

#3Alternative TOOL OPTIONS

MS Office 365 apps are not mandatory; teams can choose alternative tools that better meet their needs or enable them to evaluate new tools.

Please note that using alternatives leaves teams susceptible to some of the issues that prompted the SDLC update, including confusion about repository locations, license cancellation, tool fatigueand and difficulty getting peers to use specific tools.
